About Patricia
Patricia De La Garza is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of experience. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and build confidence. Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.
Patricia helps adults notice the thoughts and habits that keep problems going. She uses straightforward tools to change unhelpful patterns and teaches coping skills people can use right away.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. In the room she keeps a curious and respectful stance. Patricia listens for values, strengths, and real-world barriers so goals feel achievable.
She aims to help people feel more capable when facing everyday challenges. Her practice also pays attention to personality and relationship patterns that affect wellbeing. Areas she works with include attachment issues, avoidant and dependent personality traits, antisocial personality concerns, panic attacks, mood disorders, social anxiety and phobia, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Patricia emphasizes clear, usable strategies rather than abstract talk. She guides clients through step-by-step changes and offers encouragement along the way. People leave sessions with specific skills to manage emotions, reduce reactivity, and move toward the life they want.

How therapeutic techniques translate to online sessions
Patricia uses evidence-based techniques aimed at changing thought patterns and behaviors into practical steps people can use. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real situations to reduce anxiety and anger. This helps with panic attacks, social fears, and negative self-talk.Another approach emphasizes building coping skills through small behavioral experiments and practice. Clients try new responses between sessions and then review what worked, which supports lasting change for mood and stress management.
Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Patricia will discuss options and adapt methods to each person's goals, values, and daily life. She emphasizes working together to find what feels most useful rather than prescribing a single path.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to keep therapy consistent. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, practicing skills, and getting timely support between longer meetings. These formats make it easier to maintain progress while juggling work, family, and other obligations.
